Hello Readers!
Big week on my end. I rebuilt my entire website, I’m starting an ARC team, and December is now close enough that I can count the weeks. Let’s get into it.
🌐 The Website Is New, and There’s an ARC Team
I spent most of last week giving my website a complete overhaul. It’s cleaner and easier to use, and it’s a better home for everything: books, series info, and the events I’ll be attending.
The biggest addition is the ARC team. If you’d like to read my books ahead of release and hear more about what’s coming, you’re welcome to join.
Take a look around the new site while you’re there and tell me what you think. If something is hard to find, I want to know.
✨ December 1st: Not Your Book Boyfriend (Three Weeks Out)
Book two of the Not As Written series is ready, and it has a very pretty cover. Pre-order is open.
Wisteria Creed has survived the Carter case, a Fae war on her doorstep, and the discovery of what she really is. Now the city wants a task force, the Directorate wants a liaison, and the liaison wants her to feel safe.
Camdan Holtson is tall, polished, perfectly attentive, and perfectly wrong. His song is a flawless scan of a person, every note in place and nobody home. He remembers how she takes her coffee. He’s exactly the dream boyfriend the Fae Studies Directorate ordered. And Wisteria, who hears everything, can’t stop listening to the one sound he doesn’t make.
Some men are written to be perfect. Some learn to be real.
📖 Not Your Maniac Pixie Dream Girl: Book one. Out now.
💫 Not Your Book Boyfriend: Book two. December 1, 2026. Pre-order open.
Book three closes out the trilogy in 2027, and I’m getting to work on it now. I love how this trilogy came together.
💨 The Richmond Academy Series: The Finale Lands December 15th
Trial by Wind came out last month, and Trial by Spirit arrives on December 15, 2026 to finish Shayla’s story. It has been a busy year, and I’d do every bit of it again to get all five of Shayla’s books out into the world.
If you’ve been waiting to read the whole thing, you’re five weeks from a complete series.
🔥 Trial by Fire: Book one. Shayla arrives at Richmond Academy as the girl who can’t control her spark. Everything starts here. Out now and on Kindle Unlimited.
🌊 Trial by Sea: Book two. Shayla thought the worst was behind her. But Georgios has secrets tied to a mermaid heritage that demands a price, and a series of deadly underwater trials pushes their trust to the breaking point. A charismatic new rival and the Academy’s dark secrets are rising to the surface. Out now and on Kindle Unlimited.
🌍 Trial by Earth: Book three. The pivot point of the series. Shayla develops earth powers, Georgios’s Minotaur heritage comes forward, and the twists get darker. Out now and on Kindle Unlimited.
💨 Trial by Wind: Book four. Shayla survived the Earthbinding. She’s not sure she’ll survive what comes after it. The wind tunnel beneath Richmond Academy is unstable, the council wants it contained, and then the new cohort arrives: a silver-eyed transfer student who watches too closely, a water-shifter with a smile like a closing door, and a quiet historian who knows more about Richmond’s buried history than anyone should. Somewhere in that history is the answer Shayla has been too afraid to look for: what happens to a phoenix who never learns to fly. Out now.
✨ Trial by Spirit: Book five. The finale. Shayla’s ending. December 15, 2026. Pre-order open now.
Anthologies Still Available
🍂 Seasons of Magic: Mabon-Samhain: The autumn anthology. Six witches, spells gone wrong, magic that always has a price.
🌊 The Call of the Sea: My story The Drowned Chorus: a marine bioacoustician, a remote island, a voice in the water, and the ancient impossible being behind it.
📖 Once Upon A Fairytale: My story Half-Coin Promise: two best friends, a split coin, and a promise that holds through labyrinths all the way to their happily ever after.
📍 Come Say Hi: ASB Book Bash 2027
I’m heading to ASB Book Bash 2027 on June 19 at the Grand Casino and Resort in Shawnee, Oklahoma. It’s a long way off, but I’m already looking forward to meeting readers in person.
If you’re thinking about going, the readers’ group has all the details: ASB Book Bash Readers Group. I’ll add more events to the events page as I confirm them.
👀 A Peek at 2027
Here’s what I’ve been working on for next year:
- Book three of the Not As Written trilogy
- A twisted fairytale, this time a full novel instead of a short story
- A return to motorcycle romance, for the first time in a while
Here’s my question for you: which of those are you most curious about? Leave a comment and tell me. I read every answer.
From the Writing Cave
The website overhaul took over my week, and I’m glad it’s done. I hope it makes everything easier to find.
Besides that, I’ve been editing and starting on some 2027 projects, and that part is exciting. I’m juggling a lot of worlds right now, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Thank you for being here for all of it. Whether you’ve read every book or you’re just finding me, I’m glad you’re here.
Happy Reading,
Wendy
P.S. The ARC team is brand new, which means the first spots are open right now. If you want early copies and a peek behind the scenes, join here. I’d love to have you.
